According to this review you can't, though I'd be interested if anyone found out that you could... http://www.macworld.co.uk/digitallifestyle/reviews/index.cfm?reviewid=3276167

I have Windows 7 on my desktop. When I put in the USB device it searched Windows Update for a driver and installed it. The mouse seems to work fine although I haven't been able to find out how to adjust the two side buttons.

Yes you can, if you get a USB OTG adapter. However, you have only one USB port. You would likely need a keyboard with a trackball built into the keyboard to use both devices. Regardless, unless you send a lot of text, I do not believe you will need either a keyboard or a mouse. I seldom plug in my keyboard.

I used a USB keyboard and mouse. There are 4 USB ports - 2 in front and 2 in back.

I definitely have 2 usb ports. btw, I am having issues with over sensitivity in the mouse pad. really jittery and brings up pages I pass over and don't click on. Seemsto be a fairly common problem with this computer. good luck

It only uses 1 port, but I opted to use a Logitech performance mouse and keyboard. For me, I desired a larger mouse and smaller keyboard. They work great!

Yes. The keyboard/mouse is electronically matched to the USB transmitter, whether hardwired or thru software with the unifying process with those units using the configurable wireless technology. Probably one could design a way to maliciously configure the unifying units to create a problem situation, but you would have to work at it.

You need to use Logitech's Unifying Receiver software. Follow the steps to reassign the keyboard and mouse to one dongle

IT WORKED FOR ME. My mouse stopped working and I didn't want to get one to tie up a USB port. So I bought the same model as the one that stopped working and it works with the built in receiver.

Well you won't have any issues but you need to install the receiver on whatever computer you're working on. you can't have 2 receivers on each computer and hope the mouse will respond to each one separately, I can tell you because I have 2 receivers and I tried that. I tried using the 1 receiving on my desktop and hoping to install the 2nd receiver on my laptop, needless to say it didn't work I needed to remove the receiver from my desktop to my laptop in order to get it working without any issues.Hope that helps.

Okie-Ono, Yes, an HID-Compliant USB (wired) mouse / keyboard can be connected. --Mr. S

Hi- I am using a run-of-the-mill Microsoft keyboard and trackball mouse. Both are working well with the KVM switch.

There are different models of the same keyboard/mouse. One is Bluetooth and one is USB.

Not sure if I'm understanding the quiestion. I'm currently using only one USB for both the keyboard and mouse and it works just fine.

I purchased the K205 Keyboard which had a Unifying receiver. I already owned a M305 Mouse which has just a nano receiver. I attempted to pair it via the unifying software downloadable from Logitech and it does not appear to work. This is a shame since the keyboard and mouse both match. Thankfully I only need the kybd at the office so I will just plug the unifying receiver into the docking station I leave at the office and it will all be fine. I will continue to keep my mouse receiver plugged into my laptop usb port where it has been for months and use it when I am mobile as needed.

Sorry, I have not tried that. I have a dongle that combines my Logitech MX5000 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse. I only briefly unsuccessfully tried to pair it with my headset with no success, at least using Linux. I expect I need to try that scenario on a microsoft machine with Logitech software. Short answer, I don't know yet.

no problem connecting keyboard and/or mouse via the hub. However keyboard and/or mouse may require software installation.
